I got a new set of 36 table tennis balls. However, they are quite dusty and always leaves marks on my bat or paddle. Over time, the paddle could not spin due to the dust without a wash with the butterfly soap. So my question is: Should I wash my table tennis balls? If so, how?

Hi Andy,

The dust tends to wear off quite quickly but if you want you can just put them all in a bucket of water and then wipe them and the dust will come off.

The thickness of a table tennis table is the most important aspect of a table to ensure you get a true consistent bounce. Other things to consider are the net, portability, and storage space.
